Daily I still think of how dh got let go. It still hurts and brings tears to my eyes just thinking of it. The company was a family owned company and touted itself on it's employees being like family. Besides how he was let go, it had felt like they cared, like they were more than just an employer. Like they actually cared about the people who worked for them. It just hurts.
I'd take Josie into visit or to drop something off, pick something up, etc about once a month. They've seen Josie grow up. Last time I had gone in was to show Oli off after having him. Some of the employees were out to lunch and never got to see him.
They had family freindly things at the office. Josie would go around every holloween office to office for treats. They'd have christmas exchanges, basketball/football pools. They'd have a company picnic each summer at a park with swimming and tons of fun. Josie was going to love it this year. I was so looking forward to taking her.
It's like a family member betrayed you or something. How they let him go and strung him along was just anything but thinging of him as a family member.
I can't help but think if I didn't have Oli then dh would still have a job. Not that it'd be worth for one milisecond not to have that boy, but it's probably true. Pregnancy, especially at the end was stressful beyond believe. I took much out on dh. Then when I went over I was even more stressed. Then with having him with MIL saying for only 1/2 a week and not helping this time I was even more of a bitch to deal with. Then the whole adjusting to two kids... OMG dh would come home daily and I'd just cry and yell and say I needed a break from them.
I knew others said going from one to two was hard, but I didn't think it'd be that bad. Not that it changes anything now, but I just keep thinking, had I only not taken it all out on Dh, he might still have a job. Yes he would have still had to deal with the not getting a week off before the new year, and having to do 2 people's jobs for 6 months, but if it was only that, not paired with a new baby and a wife going crazy at home, I think he would have been fine. It was just way too much on a person at once.
While I understand not wanting to start a new business with a person not 100% there mentally, it just hurts when someone does that who you felt were family friendly.
I know his old boss and his wife donate TONS of money to area charities, which is good...since we have to now tap into them.
I wonder if he even cares? Did it even phase him what he did to dh and then in turn to our family? Does he even realize it?
Well I know he realizes it whether he likes it or not. Because I pretty much told him. Dh was promised files of his work he did there. After weeks of not getting them I finally sent an email to the old boss pleading and explaining exactly why it's important to get the files and get a job. I just sent yet another one because the pervious intern now full time employee missed giving dh all the files. After dh trying a few times to let her know without a response, he finally gave up. I'm a tad more persistant and went back to the boss to let him know what happened...the chick emailed dh asking for what he was missing one day later. DH has no clue I wrote to the old boss, however, everytime I do the response is within 24 hours, so the point must be getting across.
